wish for the people OF Milwaukee than
that they may continue by their splendid
advantages of location and sound financial
condition to invite to their city the most
important elements of growth and whole
some progress"
From the Court House reviewing stand
the procession resumed it's march to
Schlitz Park, where
THE HAND-sHAKING
feature of the programme was arranged to
be carried ont. Behind the Presidential
carriage all the way up to the park
trudged a grizzled old Irishman beading
aloft a banner inscribed with the words,
President and Constitution" He had
walked to Milwaukee all the way from
Neenah, Wis, with his flag for this pur-
pose. He gave his name as John Sexton.
At Schlitz Park, there was an avenue of
arches formed of gas jets, large Tyres of
punctured gas pipes being placed above
the centre of. each arch. Though it was
broad daylight, the gas was Lit, and
against the background of tr les, presented
a very pretty sight. The President was
stationed on platform in the
main pavilion inside the park, sur
rounded by the Citizens Committee.
The Presidents reception lasted an
hour. He was so tired Of handshakiDg
as he himself observed that most of the
time he kept his hands behind his back
and simply bowed as the people passed.
From Schlitz Park the party drove to the
Exposition Building and thence after
brief rest TO the Plankinton House. Mrs.
Cleveland had left the procession early in
the afternoon and at o'clock dined
at the residence of John Mitchell,
resident manager of the Soldiers
home. The dinner party was confined to
the chief guests and ten ladies. From
here she was driven to the residence of
Jas. Kneeland on Grand avenue, where
she gave a public reception, lasting until
8 o'clock, when she was driven to the
House, where she listened to
toasts at the Merchants banquet from the
balcony Of the dining hall.
Just $50 guests sat down at the ban
luet rendered by the Merchants Associa.
ton to the President, including leading
Democrats and Mugwumps
from all parts of the State. The dining
hall was deliberately decorated with ferns
and palms.
Mr.. Cleveland made short address,
after which the festivities continued into
the small hours of the night.

SULLIVAN AND O'BRIEN.
The Case Against the Lord Mayor Dis
missed.

The Case Against tne Loru mayor LIE
missed.
DUBLIN, October 6.-The trial Of Lord
Mayor Sullivan and Mr.. O'Brien for pub.
fishing in the papers respectively oontroll'
ed by them, reports Of meetings Of sup
pressed branches Of the National League,
opened at the Mansion House Court this
afternoon. a a.
Great crowds of people liued the route
taken by the Lord Mayor and Mr.. o Brien,
and the corporation Of the city, which will
attend them in state during the trial.
The Lord Mayor was driven to the court
in carriage, which YVES followed by
Messrs. John Dillon, NJ. p, ex-Lord Mayor
E. Dwyer Gray, and Chas. Dawson, ex'
Sheriff Peter Mcdonald and others. The
City Marshal. wearing cooked hat and q
sword, led the civic dignitaries, who were
arrayed in the full robes Of their offices.
Mr.. 0'Brien joined the procession after
it started and proceeded to the Court The
streets through which the procession
passed 10 the Court were thronged and the
Lord Mayor and Mr.. O'Brien were the re.
cipients Of great ovation along the eutire
route. Policemen wandered singiy through
the crowd. ACCORDION of police surrounded
the Mansion House and prevented the
crowd from approaching the COURTROOM.
There were fifty municipal officers pres
ent in the Court After the case had been
called by the magistrate q warm dispute
occurred between the police attendants in
the Court and Mr.. Sexton, Member Of Par
lament, and High Sheriff OF Dublin, aris-
ing from the desire of the latter to place
the city sword and mace before the magis-
trate. The police attempted to prevent the
placing Of the city emblems on the table,
whereupon Mr. Sexton and other munich
pal officers seized the sword and attempted
to place it there by force. The police and
municipal officers struggled for the possess
sion Of the sword, while the spectators in
the gallery cheered Mr.. Sexton and ex-
horted him TO hold on" After u few
minutes both sides desisted, a compromise
was effected and the sword was placed on
the magistrates bench.
After the adiustment of the difficulty in
the body Of the court, the corporation of.
fices retired to the seats which had been
reserved for them in the gallery. Mr..
O'Brien did not enter the court to answer
the summons which had heen issued against
him. When quiet was restored in the court
room, the case of Sullivan was proceeded
with. Mr.. Carson appeared as counsel for the
Crown and Mr., Timothy Healy appeared for
the defense. After hearing the evidence
the Court dismissed the case on the ground
that the Crown had not proved that the
meeting reported in the Nation was
meeting of n suppressed brapch of the
National League. The spectators and the
crowd outside the court room were wildly
enthusiastic over the decision. The case
Of Mr. 0'Brien will be called to morrow.

PRESIDENT and Mrs. CLEVELAND had
a magnificent "send off, from Chicago
Yesterday. They left amid the booming Of
artillery, and when they arrived at Mil
waukee booming cannon welcomed them.
The route was, AS usual, lined with en-
thusiastic crowds. Even the plOughmen
in the fields had their horses gaily decked
out in the patriotic red, white and blue.
Sleepy Milwaukee walked up and turned
ont en- masse to do honor to the President
and admire his fair lady. The President
spoke to and shook hands with the throngs
till he was tired out. Milwaukee is not
~ lively city aS Chicago, but she can
show her patriotism with the best of them.
